| Article Title :: Documenting Comments Within Code |
| |
| Despite our best intentions we can not always guarantee that the documentation relating to our application will always be available, locatable or made available when needed. A solution to this is using our comments in code to document our application. What sort of comments make for good documentation:Descriptions of routines.
Descisions made and options rejected.
Emails.
Error messages.
User comments.
Application notes.
Competition solutions and options.
URLs.
Rule numbers and headers from specifications.There is a variety of comment-able documentation. Descriptions of a routine are a given. Emails? Emails upon important d (read full article) |

| Article Title :: How to Choose Right Time Management Software |
| |
| Setting up your own personal time management system ironically requires time for you to choose from the variety of time management software available for the different computer operating systems and portable devices. Depending on your particular time management needs, your computer time, organizer software and to do list software you can perform more easier or harder operations, as well as present different features.To get the most effective time management software, you must also have a clear idea about what it is intended for. There are organizer software specifically designed for business use, but doing research you can find applications intended for personal time management at (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Microsoft Dynamics GP Reporting – Overview for Developer |
| |
| Microsoft Dynamics or former Microsoft Business Solutions products line, including Microsoft Dynamics GP – Great Plains, Microsoft Dynamics CRM, Microsoft Dynamics AX – Axapta, Microsoft Dynamics NAV – Navision – is now on the way to move to .Net platform, this will mean that for the development community we should pay more and more attention to Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services and probably deemphasize Crystal Reports/Crystal Enterprise. At the same time Microsoft Business Solutions reopened Great Plains Source Code program for MBS partner channel, this signals to us that we need to rehabilitate old Great Plains/Microsoft Dexterity based tools: ReportWriter, Microsoft Dext (read full article) |

| Article Title :: 3D Architectural Rendering |
| |
| 3D architectural rendering, as the name itself suggests, is a three-dimensional view of an object. In this context we mean a building or a house you want constructed. A 3D view is definitely more expressive and exciting than a 2D view because 3D architectural rendering gives you the opportunity to play with your imagination to get a more realistic, imaginative, and comprehensive impression of what you require in your building.3D architectural rendering is possible by using a rendering module to view your project from various aspects or angles, and then make modifications accordingly. 3D rendering is generated by the computer in the form of virtual images, which are created with th (read full article) |

| Article Title :: User Driven Modelling - Detailed Explanation - Part 1 - Research Aim |
| |
| This research arises out of projects to create systems to facilitate management of design and cost related knowledge within aerospace organisations, with the aim of using this knowledge to reduce the costs of designing and manufacturing products. This paper identifies ways that problems arising from the model development process can be addressed, by a new way of providing for the creation of software. We have gained experience from projects, which have used a combination of proprietary software solutions and bespoke software. It is possible to identify the approach of User Driven Programming (UDP) as an effective software development technique. This research unites approaches of Object Or (read full article) |

| Article Title :: User Driven Modelling - Detailed Explanation - Part 2 - Research Approach |
| |
| This research demonstrates how a taxonomy can be used as the information source, from which it is possible to automatically produce software. This technique is most suitable at present to modelling, visualisation, and searching for information. The article explains the technique of User Driven Model (UDM) Development that could be part of a wider approach of User Driven Programming (UDP). This approach involves the creation of a visual environment for software development, where modelling programs can be created without the requirement of the model developer to learn programming languages. The theory behind this approach is explained, and also the main practical work in creation of this s (read full article) |

| Article Title :: User Driven Modelling - Detailed Explanation - Part 3 - Criteria Necessary |
| |
| Why a different approach is neededTranslating concepts into an implementation is difficult. The difficulty of trying to explain the subjects of interest in a call for papers, or proposals illustrates this problem. Because of the ambiguity of words, there is always going to be a problem of interpretation between those who specify the requirements, and those who need to understand and interpret them.For software development, a good way to reduce the level of misunderstandings is to go through the loop from concept to design to implementation quickly and efficiently so that feedback can be returned from the software model. Then mistakes can be seen and corrected quickly. (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Chess - Chess Software |
| |
| For those of you who would love to play a good game of chess but don't know anyone who has the smarts to take you on, there's no need to fear. Thanks to computer technology, there are enough chess software programs to keep you more than challenged and even give you fits in the process.Actually, chess software is not just limited to programs that allow you to play chess against the computer. There are programs that, in addition to that, allow you to plug in the moves for an already played game and do an analysis of that game. For some reason, as much as chess players love to play the game, they love to analyze it just as much.One of the most popular chess software programs (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Meta-Languages and their usefulness for User Driven Programming |
| |
| Meta-languages describe the structure of information to enable this information to be searched more easily by software systems. XML (eXtensible Markup Language) has emerged as the most important of these Meta-languages and is the base for many languages. XML standards are important for the Semantic Web, many computer based reasoning systems, and for communication between different software applications. Alternative representations of information should not be used in any system being developed now unless the author has examined XML based standards and found them insufficient. Such a situation is highly unlikely. Any software system that does not use these standards will have difficulty co (read full article) |
